Love the PC Peter Grant, apprentice wizard, books.
This one, the 5th in the series, was a send Peter to the countryside away from his London comforts book. At least Beverley Brook turns up as backup sent by Nightingale.
Lesley "appears" as a series of text messages and ends with a warning that everything is going to end in a year's time. Not good.
Out in the countryside we have Unicorns and Fae & Changelings and a dude that has too many children with too many mothers.

I loved the first 4. This one, meh.
Not sure why, but it wasn't as funny, it isn't stand alone, you better read the previous, and it just seemed less good. It dragged in parts, the ending was what? Not much.

3.5 because Kobna Holdbrook-Smith is an amazing narrator! Besides that saving grace this story was a slow slog and difficult to fully enjoy. After the bombshell of an ending in book #4, I was hoping for more information on Lesley May and her whereabouts. I wanted Peter to get angry and let it all out but he was his usual reserved (except for one moment) self. I also want MORE magic!
